Vermont closely resembles something that's a cross between Tillman IV-1 and Tillman I. However she carries fewer guns than either design. Tillman IV-1 carried thirteen 18 inch guns and Tillman I carried twelve 16 inch guns. Her armor scheme, however, is exactly the same as the Tillman IV-1;but, dispite the armor and armament that resembles the Tillman designs. Vermont's actually slower by atleast two knots than the other designs, Tillman IV-1 (25.2 knots) Tillman I (26.5 knots). | |

Vermont — American Tier X battleship.
During World War I, in the midst of the dreadnought arms race, designers were given complete carte blanche. Seven battleship designs were proposed with maximum capabilities and performance. There was only one restriction—the battleships had to be able to pass through the Panama Canal. The initial design was more conservative compared to the others. The battleship carried twelve large-caliber guns placed in four turrets, was reasonably fast, and had very strong armor.

- Decent main battery dispersion, which can be improved further with Artillery Plotting Room Modification 2 .
Cons:
- Slowest tier 10 battleship in the game, with a base speed of 23 knots. Combined with her sluggish maneuverability, she will struggle to disengage from engagements.
- Despite having 38mm covering the mid section of the hull and a large HP pool, Vermont is prone to taking large chunks of damage even when angled. Making her reletivly fragile.
